Abstract

The physical nature of the wavy interfaces formation under extreme dynamic loading conditions typical for explosive welding was established using the example of copper-copper bimetallic joint structure. It was shown that such surfaces occur in a complex hierarchical subordination of the shear and rotational modes of metal plastic flow, both realized at the macro-, meso-, and micro- levels.
